HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Yes, it would be best to tell your doctor about these symptoms. It is possible that the dizziness and lightheadedness is related to your medication if the blood pressure is dropping too low.
It is also possible that it may be related to your blood sugar value as well so these need to be assessed.
I hope this helps
